So when I get to the end of the rainbow, what color will the Tbird be?
Morning rainbow, pretty rare
Morning rainbow, pretty rare
Or maybe white with sprinkles for your birthday!
Thanks for filling one of my many voids of knowledge. Likely saved me from death if I ever decided to built an amp. I would pick all the colors to match or at least coordinate...most components had some kind of color code by way of dots or stripes originally and up to about 40 years ago when small print became cheaper….if any component retained color codes it would be (some) resistors…in the picture, none of the colors mean anything with exception of the resistors on top…

(Me building an amp is never going to happen. Changing pre tubes is about as far as I can go.)
Truth is, I really like the gold
Black, which is all the colors mixed together…

Me too. But they are around 3K these days. Very collectible. But I think I want a ‘76 to ‘79 first.
Reminds me of "Spunky," a calf my wife raised when young because the mother died. She was a Charolais, however, My FIL kept her around though she had very few offspring because she was more like a (costly) pet. She lived long enough I got to meet her. He treated all of them well and was furious if anyone didn't take care of their animals. They must have known it because they loved to be around the family even if no food was involved.
I used to go fishing on the farm, and at one pond they would come up and stand behind me and watch while I fished. First time it unnerved me. They eased up behind me and I didn't know they were there. I turned around and about 30 cows that were in that field all came over and were watching me, from about 20 ft away. City boy was a little concerned the first time.

Best wishes Marshall. For you my friend... You have no doubt seen anything I could turn up, this was a hope and a chance.

a Bosch factory (now Mercedes) in Alabama I used to visit even had robots replenishing the pick and place machines....and this was over 15 years ago!....
Hey hey! Never say never...Thanks for filling one of my many voids of knowledge. Likely saved me from death if I ever decided to built an amp. I would pick all the colors to match or at least coordinate.

I posted because I wanted to get across how cool the fact that you can buy a component kit that would bring an anemic PCB based tube amp such as the high production 7ender Blues Deville to life, but I didn't do a good job explaining...
